## Abstract The mechanism of the nucleation and formation of singleβwalled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) was investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. When the initial state was chosen so that carbon and nickel atoms were randomly distributed in a simulation domain, the formation of a random ca
